There is something about a great outfit that just gets us so motivated to go to the gym. We will admit that even we have days that we are literally dragging ourselves to the gym. While we do LOVE working out and staying fit, we definitely have our days where that motivation is lacking.
When we are feeling like the gym is the last place we want to be, we will usually pick out a cute outfit (usually something with some sort of mesh) like this tank. There is something about mesh that we just both love so much. It is kind of revealing and spices up the outfit without being too much, you know?
Another thing we take into account a ton is how affordable the pieces are. Who wants to spend an arm and leg on something that could get ruined during an intense workout? Of course, that doesn’t mean you wear a trash bag, though! What we love about Old Navy’s activewear line is that it is all SO affordable and #builtforplay! Most of the pieces are all under $20 or $30. How cool is that? I mean, look at how cute these pieces are!

I love these black crops because black just goes with everything. Also, since my tank and these leggings are both part of the “run” activewear line, they have a smooth, quick-drying compression fabric perfect for getting your sweat on! Even though they are black, they also have a “Superior Go-Dry Shade” wicking technology with built-in sun protection. I do love black, but sometimes, I can get so hot in it! It was extremely hot when we were shooting this look, and these were super breathable.
I also love these mesh panel leggings!
How cute is the back of this tank? I LOVE the mesh in the back and the top is super light and breathable, which is key when you’re getting all sweaty!
Speaking of getting sweaty, I am far from a runner! I would love to someday run a marathon of some sort, or something of that level because I think it is such an accomplishment, and since I don’t enjoy it that much, I think it would be even more important for me to do at some point.
For my workouts, I usually like to start off with some cardio (either on the stair master) or on the treadmill. For the stair master, I will usually do a moderate speed like level 8-10, but I do NOT hold on! If you hold on, you are making it way easier, and not letting your legs do the actual workout! If I am doing the treadmill, I will usually walk at a speed of 3.3-3.5 and an incline of 10.0-12.0.
I will usually lift weights after I finish doing cardio and will train a different muscle group each time I workout. You can see some of my workouts in this post!
And, now for another look, which we love just as much!

Similar to the crops in the other look, these have a superior moisture-wicking Go-Dry technology that helps keep you dry during your workout! Since we do pretty intense workouts, we can get pretty sweat (yuck!), so these leggings from the “train” activewear line are great because you won’t get those nasty sweat marks on your leggings.
We love the keyhole back of this top because who doesn’t want to show off the work you’ve been putting in at the gym?! It would even be cute with a strappy sports bra underneath that would peek through!
How cute are the details of these leggings? I love how they have the lines in them up-close, and how they look grey from a distance!
We also wanted to share a few ways we like to get our sweat on when we are not going to the gym (or don’t have access to one!)
- Go on a walk or jog in our neighborhood or on the trails near our house (Katy Trail, White Rock Lace, etc.)
- Do an at-home or outdoor workout doing a circuit like this (do each one for a minute and repeat several times):
- jumping jacks
- high knees
- push-ups
- tricep dips off a bench or curb
- Go on a bike ride around the neighborhood (okay, we will admit, we haven’t been on a bike in YEARS, but we want to go soon!)
- Go to a track and run the bleachers or try one of these workouts.

And, now for our eats from this week:
We were both hungry at 10 PM the other night, and in addition to chocolate and a quest bar, we were craving veggies, so we threw this quick salad together of tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, salt and pepper, and balsamic vinegar.
We tried this new place called 
As you can tell, we ate out a lot this week, haha. We also went to Texas De Brazil (so good) which has the BEST salad bar and then unlimited steak, chicken, etc. I know this picture is SO terrible, but I wanted to show you one (of many) plates of the meat. I get all the meat like flank, filet, etc and then I also get this chicken that is wrapped in bacon. I don’t like lamb or sausage, so I don’t eat those!
Look how incredible this salad bar is! I got two plates of this (insert embarrassed monkey emoji here).
Here’s a salad I made one afternoon for my afternoon meal:
The same sautéed veggies I make almost every night with chicken. Never gets old!
After making over 800 waffles this week, we headed to another mediterranean spot in Dallas. It’s a buffet, so I will usually get the oven-baked chicken, the cucumber and tomato salad, eggplant, okra, green beans, salad, and cauliflower. Oh, and I had 2.5 plates of this 😉
We got invited to attend yoga in the park (more on my snapchat @alexis.belbel)) on Saturday, and then headed to 
And, now for some of our favorite workout clothes this week:

Happy Wednesday! I shot this look a million months ago (so behind on posting it), but the good thing is this athleisure look can basically be worn all year-long, and with spring and summer around the corner, it is perfect traveling attire for all of your vacations coming up!
